Summary
| Description |
English: The facade of the 16th century building Khan Sour in Tyre/Sour, Southern Lebanon. It was constructed as the residence of Ottoman Emir Younes Al-Maani and "subsequently became the property of the Franciscan fathers." The building was later used as a garrison and transformed into a Khan (Caravanserai), "traditionally a large rectangular courtyard with a central fountain, surrounded by covered galleries". French troops used the building during both World Wars as a base. In 1982, its second storey was heavily damaged by Israeli bombardment. The ruins are still standing though in the centre of today's Souk marketplace area and are also known as Khan Al-Ashkar. |
